This wooded lakefront location is in the heart of Southwest Michigan’s Wine Country- it is breathtaking and tucked away; yet, it is directly on the lake for swimming, fishing, boating, Hot tub, and close to nearby wineries, beaches, hiking trails, cycling, deep sea fishing in nearby Lake Michigan, golf courses and tennis courts.

The warm, charming layout of this secluded and private cabin creates the perfect space for movie nights, board games or discussions alongside the wood-burning fireplace. Large windows draw in refreshing, natural light, and there’s plenty of outdoor space for wildlife-watching (not to mention the spectacular outdoor hot tub). When you think “cozy,” imagine yourself curled up with a soft blanket, listening to the crackle of a roaring fire, and nothing but time to be present and enjoy the perfect hygge setup. This ECO Lux house has a custom-built stone fireplace and a beautifully remodeled kitchen where blues and neutrals mirror the surrounding landscape. Two bedrooms, loft, 2 full baths and a family room, and dining area make this a perfect set-up for a family wanting a bit more privacy. Upstairs in the loft there are 2 single beds and a Queen sofa/bed with wood burning fireplace stove.

Outdoors, enjoy the beauty of the private lakefront, birds and outdoor lake activities. Whether stretching out on a chaise lounge to catch some rays with a beach read, swimming, fishing, dangling your feet off the end of the pier, grilling up burgers and dining al fresco, or soaking in the hot tub under the stars, there are no shortage of take-your-breath-away moments just awaiting your arrival. Weave magical memories with your loved ones. It's the perfect time to reunite with friends and family in a gorgeous setting. This property is ideal for the discriminating guest that values privacy, security and perfect seclusion. Capture mindful, rustic, luxury- organic, elemental in a cabin like house, with all natural surroundings- wood, stone, glass - all local- plus the majestic quiet lake with over 200 feet of private lakefront frontage the house sits on to awaken the body and mind in a haven of tranquility.
